Description

Morlet Family Cabernet Franc 2012Force de la Nature
Bottle (9)

"The nearly perfect Cabernet Franc Force de la Nature comes from
a parcel of Cabernet Franc vines planted on the gravelly bench of
the Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard. This cuvée is only produced in
great vintages, which, of course, the 2012 and 2013 are. As with
all of Luc Morlet’s wines, there are no acid adjustments, no
enzymes and no manipulation. The inky/blue/purple-colored, aromatic
2012 Cabernet Franc Force de la Nature boasts a floral,
full-bodied, layered mouthfeel, fabulous intensity and notes of wet
rocks, spring flowers, forest floor, blueberries and black
raspberries. It is a tour de force as well as a force de la nature
from the Oakville Corridor. Consume it over the next 10-20 years."
